@emily-waldorf he clearly does, but that just makes him so much more interesting. I think that flawed characters are really fascinating, especially since we don’t see a lot of good, realistic ones. Idk, but I kind of get the impression that a lot of “flawed characters” tend to either have major issues that get kind of waved off, or laughably minor flaws. I’m rooting for Qatar, though (and Quin – they’re both very sympathetic).
Speaking of flawed characters, Feanor’s story is definitely heartbreaking, but more so because of his sons imo. Dude was pretty nasty to begin with, plus everything that happened to him occurred as a direct result of his own actions, but his sons got sucked into it and suffered as a result 🙁
Also, fair warning: I’m pretty sure Misu has ADHD so this might just end up being a lesson in patience for Qatar lol
